As we begin a new liturgical year this Advent, join us in person at Saint Philip’s to spend time in prayer, reflection, discussion, and the opportunity to draft a rule of life that can support a deepening relationship with God through Christ.

Three years ago, Presiding Bishop Michael Curry launched his modern-day take on the ancient monastic Rule of Life that he called the Way of Love. Its seven practices encourage us to explore different elements of spiritual practice that, together, help bring us into a deeper relationship with God and each other.

Date and location
The one-day retreat from 10:00am-2:30pm on Saturday, December 11, will take place in the Murphey Gallery on Saint Philip’s campus. There will be a break for a provided lunch.

Cost
A suggested donation of $15 is requested to cover the costs associated with this retreat. Payment may be made on the day of the retreat.
